Why Do We Need To Talk About Domestic Abuse?
Playhouse Square, Leeds, LS2 7UP
Description
Domestic abuse is a now a national emergency, with 1 in 5 adults experiencing domestic abuse in their lifetime. This taboo subject is still shrouded in shame, with victims suffering in silence for fear of speaking out. How do we give a voice to those trapped in this devastating multi-generational cycle while empowering others to help?
Dissecting dominance and control, stigma, cultural norms, gender, and legal definitions, our panellists will explore why starting the conversation is critical. Join our panel of survivors, support providers, and experts, all speaking up and speaking out to break patterns of behaviours and reclaim control.
